Bruce Roberts told me he was also present at the JFK assassination in Dealey Plaza, with a camera, taking photos. Some of the photos were of Eugene Brading; one showed him stuffing his rifle under his coat after shooting at JFK. I have included one photo here showing Brading in his X-marked leather sombrero. The larger photo of which this picture is a small part, shows in the top left-hand corner the right-hand corner of the pergola, so it is possible that Brading had just emerged from the pergola, after ditching his gun with his back-up man, before his stroll up to the Dal-Tex Building.--sc] Roberts, talking about the double-stamping of 400 dimes at the Denver Mint, at the moment Kennedy was shot, by a Denver Mint die operator: Two, from his Denver—Brading and Fratianno, from the Denver Smaldones Mafia family—had just blown Kennedy's brains out. Brading was photographed at the scene with a gun. Roselli, from Cohen, was the third shooter. Oswald hit his target—Connally. Albert Harris, of the California State Crime Commission, was one of those watching those 1963 events. Including those coins, and my father. A year after Dallas, all watched Alioto pay off Fratianno, from his San Francisco First National Bank, for Fratianno's Dallas shot. (The reason for the "Alioto Mafia Web" story in "Look" was to cover up the purpose of Fratianno's $100,000 pay-off.) They watched Onassis, via Maheu, pay off Johnny Roselli: a $250,000 "finder's fee" for bringing "Hughes" to Las Vegas. They watched Brading become a courier for Lansky's gambling skim money, from Onassis-"Hughes's" Las Vegas casinos to Onassis's Swiss banks. From there, the money came back, cleansed, to purchase government via the "Hughes tax-free Medical Foundation Mafia Money Funnel," set up by Nixon in 1957. This was just before the Hughes-Rector kidnap-and-switch, and the Mafia meeting at Appalachin where Onassis announced it all. Harris and the CIA Group of 40 covered up the Alioto hit-and-run on my car on September 16, 1968—as Fratianno, Brading, and Lanza muscled this writer on behalf of Alioto and Onassis. Albert Harris's California State Crime files surfaced again. Fratianno and Brading had been back in town—with Mafia Romano, at Alioto's Sunol. Their only known profession is Mafia murder—listed in those State Crime files from a Dun and Bradstreet Credit Report in early 1964, just after Dallas, stating just that—with the note: "Bad Credit Risk. Mafia." Which did not deter Banker Alioto's subsequent "loans" to Fratianno. On November 26, 1974, Harris covered the meeting of the "100 cancer" invited to Enrico's Restaurant. They included Fratianno, Brading and Leland, Snedaker, Mummert from the San Francisco Coin Club—for free rubies, free silver dollars, free gemstone papers. Harris, sick and pressured, picked up his copies at the Nigerian consulate the next day—for on that day the entire matter was turned over to the United Nations, publicly. Harris read, and moaned about "Dallas" over the week-end. Then he "heart-attacked" on the following Wednesday. And, on Friday, Kissinger and Scali declared that the U.S. would dismantle the United Nations—where the gemstone papers were then known to be, publicly. Harris's boss, Evelle Younger, rushed a State law through banning any further mention of any State Crime file records—by anyone, anywhere, including you—and naming specifically the files on Brading, Fratianno, and Romano. It became law on January 1, a few weeks ago. It is illegal. Our Constitution states that any law passed in fraud is illegal—including fraudulent presidential pardon, of murder.... Quotes from the Skeleton Key: [Robert A.] Maheu [Onassis's assassinations "contractor"] reassigned the [CIA Castro assassination] team to the murder of JFK. Shooters included Johnny Roselli and Jimmy Fratianno. To these he added Eugene Brading, a hitman from the Denver Mafia Smaldones "family." Brading, on parole after a series of crimes in California, applied for a new driver's license, explaining to the California DMV that he had decided to change his name—to "Jim Braden." Brading got his parole officer's permission for two trips to Dallas, in November, on "oil business": the first time, to look over the planned assassination spot at Dealey Plaza, and the second time, when JFK was scheduled for his Dallas trip. Lee Harvey Oswald, CIA, with carefully planned and planted links to both the ultra right and to the Communists, was the designated patsy. According to Roberts, Oswald was supposed to shoot Governor Connally, and he did–twice. Each of the four shooters, Oswald, Brading, Fratianno and Roselli, had a timer and a back-up man. Back-up men were supposed to pick up the spent shells and get rid of the guns. Timers would give the signal to shoot. Hunt and McCord were there to help. Frank Sturgis was with David Ferrie, ready to fly some of the team members out of town. Kennedy was looking up, smiling and waving to the crowd. Fratianno shot from a second story window in the Dal-Tex building, diagonally across the street from the Texas School Book Depository. He used a handgun; he was an excellent shot with a pistol. His first shot hit Kennedy in the back. Kennedy slumped forward, and Jackie reached for him. He fell back against the back of the seat. Johnny Roselli shot from the Overpass, in front of the car. His first shot may have missed, but his second shot took Kennedy under the chin, traveled upwards and blew his brains out, splattering with blood the cop riding on the motorcycle following immediately behind the Presidential car. Brading shot from the pergola on the right side of Kennedy on Elm Street. His first shot hit the curb and ricocheted off. Brading's and Fratianno's second shots both missed, because Roselli's shot had just hit Kennedy in the head and blown his brains out. Fratianno and his back-up man were "arrested", driven away from the Dal-Tex building in a police car, and released (without being booked). (The Dallas Police office is in the Dal-Tex building.) The third point of the triangulated ambush was supplied by Eugene Brading shooting from Kennedy's right, from a small pergola at Dealey Plaza, near the grassy knoll. Brading was photographed on the scene stuffing his gun under his coat, a few seconds after the shooting, by Antonio Iglesias, CIA. Brading wore a big leather hat, its hatband marked with large conspicuous X's. (Dallas Police had been instructed to let anyone with an X-marked hatband, wearing a cross, or who made the sign of the cross, through the police lines. Some may have been told that these men were Secret Service; others knew they were the murder team). After his shots, Brading ditched his gun with his back-up man and walked up the street toward the Dal-Tex building, where he was photographed again. Roger Craig, a deputy sheriff, rushed up to Brading, assuming he was Secret Service, and told him he had just seen a man come out of the Book Depository and jump into a Rambler station wagon. Brading was uninterested. Brading walked into the Dal-Tex building to "make a phone call". There he was arrested by a deputy sheriff, showed his "Jim Braden" driver's license, and was released without being booked. He departed unmolested. Piece of cake. A photo of Brading [unidentified], with the caption: Who Is This Man?"], taken at Dealey Plaza, wearing his broad-brimmed leather hat with its hatband marked with big white X's, appeared in a paperback book, Legacy of Doubt, by Peter Noyes. Eugene Brading was questioned by the FBI two months after his arrest—and release—at Dallas, and then released again, as part of the Warren Commission's determination to "leave no stone unturned" in its quest for the truth about the JKF assassination. In spite of the fact that Brading was a known criminal with an arrest record dating back about twenty years, the FBI reported that Brading knew nothing whatsoever about the assassination. Brading later became a charter member of the La Costa Country Club, Mafia heaven down near Nixon's Paradise in San Clemente. He also became a runner for the skim money from the Onassis-"Hughes's" Las Vegas casinos to Onassis's Swiss Banks. . After the JFK murder, the time came for the Denver Smaldones family to ask for their return favor. They had Representative "Gerald Ford" put on the Warren Commission. His assignment: Hide the role of Eugene Brading and the rest of the Denver Smaldones Mafia family at Dallas. Gerry Ford did it. Jim Garrison, New Orleans D.A., who tried to get Eugene Brading out of L.A. for questioning (but used one of Brading's other aliases, Eugene Bradley, by mistake), had his witnesses shot out from under him, and was framed on charges of bribery and extortion. FBI officers "confiscated" photos of Brading taken on the scene, and hid them away. But one photo escaped. The next evening [I'm not sure of this date; maybe 1968, after the "hit-and-run"?—sc] Brading and Fratianno showed up in the Black Magic Bar. Brading was wearing his big X-marked hat from Dallas to see whether Roberts recognized it, and them, and how much he knew. Brading and Fratianno took the bar stools on each side of Roberts, while another killer stood behind him. Brading handed Roberts the hat, and asked him what he thought about it. Roberts took the hat and studied it. "It's a good hat; that's all I can say for it. But if you wore a beanie, you'd look just like Pope Montini," he said. Brading laughed. "Better not let my Rabbi—Rabbi Magnin—hear you say that." [Note: Rabbi Cyril Magnin was a prominent, wealthy, and politically well-connected (to the "Democratic" Mafia Mob) San Francisco Rabbi—and Mae Magnin Brussell's uncle. Her father, Rabbi Edward Magnin, was connected to the "Republican" side. Her grandfather was the founder of I. Magnin's, and the family was quite wealthy. I have asked myself whether what begins to look like Mae's resolute suppression of the contents of the Gemstone File for many years was due to her family connections; and perhaps whether she got away with her research, writing and radio programs as long as she did because of her family's protection. Of course there were other possible reasons as well. See 1977: Mae Brussell's Dialogue Conspiracy programs on Gemstone, and my comments on them.—sc] An MP from the Presidio posted at the end of the bar piped up, "I heard they let everyone with an X-marked hatband through the police lines at Dallas". Roberts didn't say a word. He was not in a position to say anything. He had seen the hat before—in a photo of Brading, taken at Dealey Plaza, stuffing a rifle under his coat, in the pergola on Elm Street, just after his shot at JFK. The photo was taken by Antonio Iglesias, CIA—whose sister, Marina, had been married to Roberts' brother, Dayle Roberts. 3. "Mrs. Giannini's Bank of American Financed the Murder of JFK at Dallas via Alioto's Fratianno, Brading and Roselli" Eugene Brading at Dallas: Why, with all the books and lectures featuring films and photos from Dallas, does no one show or discuss this one? Eugene Brading, Mafia hit man, was arrested—and released—by the Dallas police immediately after the shooting. This is the only photo of Eugene Brading at Dallas ever published. It appeared in a Pinnacle paperback book called "Legacy of Doubt", by Peter Noyes. The book quickly disappeared. You can see the big white X's on the hatband. All of the 28-man JFK kill squad could get through the police lines with the "Dallas Cross"—either by wearing one, or by making the sign of the cross.... Quotes from Mae Brussell's 1977-8 Radio Broadcasts on Gemstone, and my comments on her comments: Mae Brussell reads from the Skeleton Key: "There were 4 shooters, Lee Harvey Oswald, Eugene Brading, Jimmy Fratianno and John Roselli. E. Howard Hunt and James McCord were at Dealey Plaza...." Mae: It's the other way around. There is no proof that Lee Harvey Oswald shot any gun on November 22, 1963, so I don't believe that Oswald was one of the shooters at all.... [I find it astonishing that Mae, after 14 years of concentrated study of the JFK assassination, never seems to venture a specific guess as to the identity of the assassins, beyond stating, "It wasn't Oswald." My description of the Dealey Plaza abattoir has changed somewhat, due to more information, but the general picture remains the same. Roberts might have been wrong about Oswald. Oswald might have been an "innocent" patsy, and someone else, possibly an Oswald double, took the shots at Connally while Oswald was elsewhere. But I believe that FRatianno, Roselli, and Brading were part of the assassination team. On the Gemstone File, the JFK assassination, though of course a vital part of the story, is only a part of a continuing story that began with Joseph P. Kennedy's involvement with Roosevelt, Onassis, and Churchill back in the 30's and 40's. In order to understand what Roberts is telling us, I believe one must step back a bit from the JFK assassination and see it in a larger historical context. With regard to Oswald's importance in the story, it is really minimal. An assassination attempt had been planned to occur in Chicago on November 1, and a killing team was in Chicago at that time. Since no one has thought about that very much, we don't know who was on that team. No one that I know of has sought to learn whether Oswald was a part of that team, and whether he was in Chicago, and what his role would have been. Tom Vallee, identified by Roberts as one of the team members in the Chicago attempt, was supposedly a "double" for Oswald. This should be investigated. [Seeing Mae's section of the Gemstone File itself [dating from 1970-1972] after all this time, I can say that I made at least one serious mistake in my original Skeleton Key account. According to Roberts, Johnny Roselli shot from the overpass, in front of the limousine, not from the grassy knoll. His shot took JFK under the chin and blew his brains out, splattering blood on the motorcycle cop riding directly behind the Presidential car.—sc] Mae: Again, this is questionable. Nobody saw Johnny Roselli at Dealey Plaza. He was a well-known Mafia man in 1963. That doesn't mean he wasn't there. But he says that Fratianno shot one shot from the Dal-Tex Building and Roselli did the fatal shot. The third point of the fatal triangulation he claims was supplied by Eugene Brading from that small pergola at Dealey Plaza. Now Brading is a Mafia member who later went on to join the early La Costa gang down in San Clemente. Brading was seen in Dealey Plaza, and he was using aliases, and he did walk over to the Dal-Tex building afterwards to make a telephone call. He could have left a gun in the bushes that another man picked up. I know Oswald didn't shoot Connally. I don't know about Fratianno. Roselli is dead, killed right after he testified before the Senate House Select Committee. And Eugene Brading has never been called to testify before any one. DECEMBER'S TOPIC: ???
